What Am I Forgetting for My Wedding? Don’t Worry, I Got Ya Covered!
Alright, listen up, you young’uns getting hitched! Planning a wedding? It’s a whole heap of trouble, I tell ya. You think you got it all figured out, but then BAM! Something smacks ya right in the face. So, let’s talk about what you might be forgettin’, ‘cause I seen a wedding or two in my day.
First off, don’t be forgettin’ the silverware. Yeah, yeah, you got the food, the fancy plates maybe, but who’s gonna eat with their hands? Nobody wants that, trust me. You gotta rent that stuff, and it ain’t cheap, but you gotta have it. Make sure you got enough forks, spoons, and them knives… whatchamacallits… the butter ones too! Gotta have enough for everyone, even them picky eaters.

- Spoons
- Knives
- Butter Knives (them little ones)
Now, somethin’ real important, and I mean REAL important: the weddin’ rings! Don’t go forgettin’ them shiny little circles. You’d think nobody would forget them, but I seen it happen. Stress does funny things to ya. Put them rings in a safe place, and then tell somebody where that safe place is! Better yet, give ‘em to the best man or the maid of honor. That way, they’re responsible, not you.
And listen here, about that weddin’ dress… It ain’t like puttin’ on your everyday clothes. Takes time, I tell ya. That fancy stuff with all them buttons and zippers… give yourself plenty of time to get ready. If it normally takes you five minutes to get dressed, plan for thirty minutes on your weddin’ day. You don’t wanna be rushin’ around like a chicken with its head cut off!
Another thing, what if the weather turns sour? You gotta have a plan B. Prepare for bad weather, even if it looks sunny as can be. Mother Nature, she’s a fickle one. Maybe you need some umbrellas, maybe a tent, maybe even a whole new indoor space. Don’t get caught out in the rain on your big day. Nobody wants a soggy weddin’ cake, now do they?
Okay, let’s talk about the little things, ‘cause they add up. Don’t forget the marriage license! That’s the paper that makes it all legal and official. Without that, you ain’t really married, just havin’ a big ol’ party. And make sure you got someone to take care of the gifts. People bring you all sorts of stuff, you know, and you don’t want that stuff gettin’ lost or broken.
Oh, and the music! Don’t forget to plan the music. You gotta have somethin’ for dancin’, somethin’ for walkin’ down the aisle, and somethin’ for just sittin’ around and eatin’. You can hire a band, a DJ, or even just make a playlist yourself, but make sure you got somethin’ playin’. Silence at a weddin’ is just plain weird.
And one more thing, and this is important for the ladies: comfortable shoes! I know you wanna look pretty in them high heels, but your feet are gonna be killin’ you after an hour or two. Bring some flats or some sandals to change into. You’ll thank me later. Trust me, nobody’s lookin’ at your feet when you’re dancin’ the night away.
So there you have it, a few things you might be forgettin’ for your weddin’. It’s a lot to think about, I know, but don’t worry too much. Just take it one step at a time and try to enjoy the process. It’s your big day, after all. Just remember what I told ya, and you’ll be just fine.
And one last piece of advice: Don’t be afraid to ask for help. That’s what friends and family are for. They can help you with all sorts of things, from addressin’ invitations to pickin’ up the cake. Don’t try to do it all yourself, you’ll just wear yourself out.
Now go on and have a wonderful wedding!
